Well, fellas, it's my favorite time of year.... It's hard to believe that the college football season is drawing to an end once again.... Good luck out there!


Utah St -7 **


Fresno St -6 **


I almost forgot to post it.... I played this one early....


Ohio St -5' ****



I also played a couple of prop bets on the Bowl Games....


Any individual bowl team's lowest final team score - UNDER 3' (-115) ****

Any individual bowl team gets shutout - YES (+170) **


Going back to 2002, there have only been 4 years that at least one team hasn't either gotten shut out or only scored a single fg, so in 12 of the last 16 years, the first play would have cashed.... In approx. 56% of the years between 2002-2017, at least one team has gotten shut out. While the second play is only about a 50/50 shot in the dark, it pays out at +170, so I will take my chances....

If any team gets shut out (40 games = 80 teams), then I win both prop bets.... I figured it was worth a shot.


Good luck out there, fellas!!! :0008

I added a couple of plays this afternoon....


CAL - pk *

Syr +1' **

Florida/Michigan Under 51 **


Leaning toward my Memphis Tigers...even without Henderson, they have plenty of offensive weapons!

Thinking about Army, but waiting to hear from Box with his take on the game....

I will be back when I add more plays....

Good luck out there, fellas!!! :0008

Good calls on Fresno and Utah St. I liked them both too. I watch a lot of Mountain West games. It's a good conference on the top end. I also agree on your Cal pic. Hopefully the Crap 12 doesn't take a huge dump this bowl season, although it wouldn't surprise me. I'm liking Kent getting 7 against Penn St. I they have been underrated all year.

GL man! :0008

Thanks. I'm actually leaning toward Penn St, but I haven't played anything yet and might just pass on the side.... I do like the under in that game - just watching to see how the number moves.



Adding for tonight:


SD St. ML +120 *


Good Luck out there, fellas!!!

Quick trend behind the SD St. play....


Teams coming off a SU loss as a DD fav in their last game who are now dogs are 44-14 ATS....


That would also apply to La Tech on Saturday at Hawaii....


Trends don't pay the rent, but I thought I would throw that one out there for you guys to ponder.... :shrug:


Also, SD St. is 8-1 ATS as a dog this season....


I think that Rocky has them ready to play tonight. GL out there! :SIB

Normally, I don't like to play teasers in college football because of the high variances.... (i.e. the 6 points just isn't worth as much as in the NFL where the totals are lower and the lines are usually tighter...and the variances aren't as drastic.)


However, that being said, I think that this might be a good spot for one on Friday night.... With the projected bad weather and wind gusts (30-40mph) and now the starting QB for FIU not playing...and the back-up has very little experience, despite being a Junior....


Although #cruncher also pointed out that there may not be much need for passing since neither of these teams defend the run very well, which is certainly a point worth restating and considering....


I'm gonna take a small shot here for shits and giggles.... I already have a decent play on the under, but I grabbed it at 62 during the middle of the free fall....

Now, it's sitting around 56' :scared


Adding:


Played this small 6pt teaser...only for *

Toldeo -1
Under 62'



Good luck out there, fellas!!! :0008

This is probably a stupid waste of good money, but hey, it's bowl season and as college football junkies, we are about to be in withdrawals until next August, so I'm going to fuck around with a few ML pups....:0002

All favs have won and covered so far (depending on where you got Ga So.).... These dogs got to start barking pretty soon....

Playing all dog ML RR parlay...with a 3tm parlay to boot. Each of 1/2*

Here's the 3tm:

Wake ML +
La Tech ML +
BC ML +


...you guys can figure out all of the RR 2tm permutations. I wouldn't advise anyone follow my lead. Like I said, probably a waste of money.... LOL :mj07:


Good luck out there, fellas!!! :0008

Didn't seem like much of a storm today.... Wind was up, but total was just as originally predicted by oddsmakers.... Oh well...



Added:

Wake +3' **
Wake ML +155 *


Will try to get back tomorrow.... Still looking at Army and BC, but lines moving against me.


Good luck out there, fellas!!!

As I said before, I don't generally like playing teasers in CFB...just too much variances. (e.g. Toledo/So Fl)


But the lines are moving in the wrong direction on these two favs and I think that both with control the ball and control the clock.... Gonna fuck around with a couple of teasers...which means I will probably pass on str8 plays on the sides and totals....

Adding:

2tm 6 pt teasers for 1*
Army pk
Ga Tech +0.5


2tm 6 pt teasers for 1*
Army pk
Army/Houston under 66'


2tm 6 pt teasers for 1*
Ga Tech +0.5
Ga Tech/Minny under 63




If BC gets to +3 or more, I will play BC both with the points and on the ML, just like I played Wake.


I'll be back after Xmas with a few more plays....


Good luck out there, fellas!!! :0008

Already posted Miami earlier....

Those damn teasers didn't work out very well.... That's why I hate playing them in college.... Just too much variance.

Hit my ML parlay, but it got reduced to a two-teamer, due to lightning.... :shrug:


Adding:


Vandy -4 **



Good luck out there, fellas! :0008
